Re: buying real estate
[ QUOTE ]
You will spend 300/month on upkeep and condo fees [/ QUOTE ] i'm not checking the other figures, but i think that is a really high estimate. i live in a 200,000 condominium and my condo fees are 140/month. that includes insurance which covers anything on the walls or floors and all of the structure (paint, flooring, shower walls, etc), the only insurance needed is for personal items like televisions and computers. |

Re: buying real estate
140/month is very cheap for condo fees. Downtown indy the minimum for anything reasonable is $285. Depends on where you live and the age of your place.

Re: buying real estate
Buy Home Buying For Dummies
Really! My wife and I learned a lot from it. We gave up on our first choice house when we were out bid, and that was a learning experience too. We had learned so much that when we went after another house, we were negotiating masters. Or at least we did an adequate job. Plus we got a great loan deal. Learn, don't just jump in. It is the biggest, riskiest investment you probably will have made up to this point, by far. -ptmusic |
